     What communications packages are currently the favorite amongst 800
owners?  I need something that can talk Kermit, and preferably uses my Hayes
SmartModem at 1200 baud (i.e., I don't want to have to buy another modem).
Please reply to the address below, and thanks in advance.

I believe David Young of CDY Consulting (421 Hanbee, Richardson TX 75080 or
(214) 235-2146) is working on a terminal emulator that speaks Kermit and runs
under his OMNIVIEW O/S chip which gives resident 80-column capability and a
high degree of compatibility with the old 800 O/S.  He also supplies an
80-column WP program with OMNIVIEW.  I have been using this for several months
and find it quite a pleasure to use compared to the 40-column WP packages.
David just released a VT-100 emulator for OMNIVIEW but I think Kermit is not
quite released...will be very soon, tho.  David???
